Sounds like he just never looked. Wonder how many times that could have happened had he had the time to look at each coin? Guy~
I know I'm on the low end, but I wouldn't pay more than 35-40 dollars for it. It books higher, but it's a common date and condition you can find...
I agree with Treashunt. The day I stop making mistakes is the day I'm either a super-human cyborg...or more likely, just dead. I trust your...
I was at a coin show inside the Plaza about 8 years ago, and I couldn't believe they still had penny slots that actually paid out in pennies (or...
Ah, my mistake. I wasn't disagreeing with the grade, for the record. I was just saying there are better examples of the same grade for the same...
None of which seem to be here. I imagine those buyers are typically investor types who wouldn't know an MS from a VF in the first place. Eye...
Not disagreeing with the weak strike theory on the original posted coin, but boy, does this ever best illustrate the tired old saying of buy the...
I'd say almost 90% of the Oklahoma quarters I have have the same effect as the obverse pic above. I've always wondered what it was, but it seems...
Humidity isn't a problem where I am most of the year. For at least 9 months, it's well below 10% (no chronic nose bleeding here), but during the...
Interesting perspective. How would one do this? Sometimes I attend coin shows in the summer. It may be a nice 70 degrees inside the show, but I...
Have to admit, Hontonai, I didn't have the free time to compile a partial spreadsheet on US population figures. But, at just 40 coins per person...
I also got my cards. Thank you and thank your son. I also have some world coins with animals depicted on them if your son is interested. I figure...
I think thats exactly the case. It's true, they may have been making only a fraction of the cents they are now, but the population was only a...
I'm not familiar with the Western. We usually never stay in casinos there. We live an hour away so it usually is more of a hassle to find a room...
Wow! Thats a lot for a fairly common date. At least they were common a few years ago when I bought a nice XF example for $5. Some people and their...
I have to say, I never thought about coin clubs in this way. It's kind of frightening. Good thing there are no coin clubs near where I live. And...
In short, no. Guy~
I think about half of the collectors who got started with the State Quarter program will remain collecting. I don't think many who are collecting...
Like I said, nobody has been sued and lost over a forum post. People sue over everything these days, but they usually don't win. Find a single...
I see your point, GX, but have to diagree as well. Anyone who comes to this, or any online forum for investment advise, is being completely...
